Time

Daylight Saving Time starts today. I hate it. I hate it a little less now than I did when the kids where small and the shift would throw our schedule off for weeks, but it’s still a nuisance. It confuses my sense of time.
Today one of my blog’s random quotes caught my eye: “I don’t need time. What I need is a deadline.” (Duke Ellington). Ain’t that the truth? I keep trying to impose deadlines on myself, but they have no power to motivate me. Only a real deadline–one that is consequential and set by someone else–is going to have any effect on me. And sometimes not even that. I am like a boulder. It takes a lot of force to move me.
